Sparrowlord01 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Hi Folks. I am hoping someone here can help me. I was unable to use skyrim for a while and when I started playing it again, now whenever I start the program, either through the launcher or skse, it crashes back to the desktop after the Bethesda Logo displays. I have tried disabling all my mods and actually deleting them, but it still happens. The one thing I did notice is that if I use the skyrim launcher, and og to the settings page, it displays my old video card, which I upgraded a fewq weeks ago. It shows my old ATI Radeon HD 4870x2 instead of my new HD 6970 card. I don't see any way to change this setting and I am wondering if this could be causing the issue. Does anyone know why it isn't detecting the new card and how I can change it? Thanks in advance. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quicksilverva Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 try this: (my) computer -> (my) documents -> my games -> skyrim backup and then delete the RendererInfo.txt file launch skyrim through the launcher to generate a new file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dipology Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Hi,I'm glad if you already have your answer. Otherwise you can try what I did. I used to have random shutdown during fast travel, loading saves or on the race menu. This is what eliminated my problems. First I reinstalled the game and reset my setting to high from ultra. I skipped using more than one similar mods, say only one facegen, one for hair, one for body. I picked only one of CBBE/UNP/others. Similar goes for companions built from CBBE (if I’m using CBBE)/ UNP (if UNP).Try not to save during prisoner scenario. Lastly keep track of compatibility of different mods.I’m new, so apologies if I’m wrong somewhere. Anyway I have more than 60 mods running on Skyrim without any disturbance. Thank you.~Anvi.

Sparrowlord01 Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 Neither worked. Still crashesa back to the desktop right after the Betheesda logo, as soon as it starts to display the next logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgiegril Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Does your card show properly now on the .ini file?If so, your crashes are probably related to your mods either needing to be ordered properly, or missing a required master file.I'd go through and read the BOSS log, address any messages it gives you, place any unrecognized mods where the mod author instructs (or, if they don't give you any info on this, place with similar mods)If it still crashes, post your BOSS log here. If you still are having problems with your game not recognizing your gpu, then I would try verifying cache files and maybe a reinstall, to force the game to reread your computer specs.

Sparrowlord01 Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 Thanks. I have already been through all the mods. I might just do a reinstall if I can find where the uninstaller is.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
